I think it a rubbish draw
Nearest station is 4 miles Charlie, they run a free bus but when they know a large away following is coming they don't run it.

You can get the train to Kirkham & Wesham station then the 78 bus to Warton, 5 minute walk from the bus stop to the stadium.

Honestly, I'd go for the supporters bus if I were you, much cheaper.

They beat us twice last year and we have pretty much the same squad and tactics.

We are definately not favourites here

I know people keep saying the team is not much different that last season but it is different from the side that played Fylde. A lot of changes took place after the Fylde games we brought players in and started to get our better injured players back.

We were under strength when we played them last year and only had 1 winger fit in the whole squad. At their place we were carrying Izak Ried in the 1st half with a foot injury he picked up, he was subbed at half-time I've got that right. Ghorman who replaced him was a big disappointment when he started in the games that followed. Pilkington and Haworth never played against them, in fact Haworth was signed as a result of what happened over that period. Neither did Ashton , both G and S Willliams and I don't recall Wilson being in the line up either as he was out injured with a lot of other players. McWilliams, Burns and Sheridan are no longer with us and they played in those games. We had McMillian in goal, now we've got Dixon. Taylor to get a run out or is he out on loan?

Was very close over both games and Barrow did put them under tremedous pressure at their place, with legit goal disallowed. Only problem is our away form at that point last season was decent, it is absolute rubbish at the moment. Difficult tie either way you look at it.

Tactics, yes not changed too much.

Hope we don't mess about with the team, got to go with strongest 11. A cup run could entice some fans who've been missing since the first game of the season back

What a shite draw. No clue what the result will be but I'm going to Wrexham the week before instead.

Gonna be very tough this 1, awful ground, shit pitch and up against a very decent side. I work alongside Fylde's supporter and he's telling me they look really good after a bit of a shaky start. Just a shame it isn't played during the week, i'd just park the car at work and walk a few hundred yards. We can win it, just haven't figured out how yet, apart the obvious scoring more than them

Dreadful draw, a decent side with a point to prove away.

Awful ground, wearing hiking boots this time if I go.

See Zak's point, if one or the other will probably do Wrexham

I'll go because I'm off work and I've put my name down for coach

It's a terrible place to go if you arrive early what is there to do ? Cramped bar / muddy fields and more away fans than home - one turnstile -
